We love seeking out new interesting ways of reading and bringing them to life to inspire and share with others.

9 years of publishing and designing experience led us to the creation of Scrollino - an innovative media format that gets you looking at paper and its possibilities differently.

Scrollino is our passion: it gave us the means to exceed the boundaries of a sheet of paper and to run the lengths of our imagination. We invented this new format and we keep playing with it - to make it better, to reimagine it, to see how far we can unroll it together.

Be the first to experience the new Scrollino collection available exclusively on Kickstarter!

Scrollino is a new media format available in 2 interactive and fun models. It offers endless creative ideas from stories and comic strips to activities, games, notebooks, origami and so much more. You decide which one will be your favorite!

Simply pull on the Paper Tab to reveal the story, the illustration or any other content. The Paper Tab not only protects the paper roll, it also serves to prevent the paper from disappearing inside once you rewind your Scrollino. Each Scrollino comes with a wooden pencil to help you to rewind the paper roll.

Turning a pencil in the top Scroller reveals the content printed on the paper roll, while turning the bottom Scroller rewinds it. For the Double Scrollino activities, the sturdy surface inside the box, hidden under the paper roll, makes it easy to write or draw.

A regular pencil is all you need to read, rewind, or even to write in your Scrollino. We designed the Scrollers to work with most standard pens and pencils (hexagonal, round, triangular, etc.). We also tested it with many other tools and utensils, so we know you can even use a wooden spoon, a chopstick, a straw or a well-shaped carrot as well. We made sure that it is just as easy for left-handers to use as right-handers. And if you feel like it, you can even use your feet!

We take a lot of joy in coming up with new ideas for Scrollino. We use Scrollino in many creative ways, so each one offers a different experience. Are you searching for an original gift for a friend, fun activities or games for your party night or an inspiring story for kids and yourself? Scrollino offers it all!

We know that sometimes it is difficult to find the time to give a beautiful present, so we designed the unique Scrollino Gift Boxes which are ready to offer. Everything is elegantly presented in a specially designed and hand-printed box. Even the pencil gets a paint job!

We use our own full-color printing technique Scrollinography™ and die cutting machine, so the possibilities are just as endless as the Scrollino® itself! A custom-made Scrollino is elegant, fun, and inspiring and can make a much better impression than any email, letter, or ordinary gift. Here are just a few ideas to get you started.

To make a long story short: the Scrollino adventure begins in 2013, when we started to experiment with thermal POS Printers used most often to print receipts in black and white. While experimenting with these printers, the idea to create and print almost infinite books came quickly into our mind. We published the first comic books ever using the POS printers in 2014 and launched them at the Milano Design Week (Italy).

As the books got longer we needed a better way to rewind them and soon invented the Scroller - the unique rewinding system - after much trial and error. By 2016 we had perfected the rewinding system, making Scrollino a reality, and thus making it possible for us to stretch its limits yet again.

To do this, we realized that we had to advance beyond simple black and white images... that indeed, printing endless uninterrupted images in color would open up a whole new universe. So we had to invent it!

Be the first to experience the new collection only available through Kickstarter! We want you, our backers, to be able to choose exactly which Scrollino® you desire. That is why our rewards tiers are based on the number of Scrollino that you choose, instead of the type. Feel free to mix and match and start scrolling!

With your support, we want to revolutionize reading and creative expression around the world. We want everyone to be able to experience the creative, interactive, and shareable fun that Scrollino makes possible.

To do this, we turned to Kickstarter – not only does it allow us to reach out to all of you, but it also permits us to pay down the cost of making the Scroller mold, produce the new collection in quantity, create new content and start realizing our visions for the future of Scrollino. We have lots of ideas and we can’t wait to start bringing them to life.

So stick around and together we can unroll Scrollino further than ever before!

Risks and challenges

We have been in the publishing industry since 2009, and we have been publishing high-quality art books and stationery since 2011 as Edition Lidu.
We are experienced with building a publishing house from the ground up, and with creating innovative and playful ways to reimagine reading.

We already have a working, viable, finished product we can start producing and shipping at the end of the Kickstarter campaign.

Delivering worldwide will always come with its own complications, but we have done our research about shipping internationally and will do our very best to ensure your rewards are received in the best possible time.

We want to deliver the Scrollino Kickstarter Collection by mid-December 2018, and the Custom-Made Scrollino in early 2019 (variable). Depending on the success of the campaign and the number of backers, of course, there is a chance some orders will arrive a little later than that. But we will still do our best to get your Scrollino to you by the winter holidays!
